Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy in Lafayette, LA

Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy should be a full body approach

At Louisiana Pelvic Health, Dr. Melissa takes a holistic and comprehensive approach to your pelvic health symptoms. She works to get to the root cause of your issue, which is unlike traditional PT. 

​

She's here to help you get your life back if you are experiencing concerns, such as leakage, prolapse, painful intercourse, constipation, or any other pelvic or low back pain.

​

​

This is more than just “do your Kegels” and “use this biofeedback machine" and it’s much more than just manual therapy and doing exercises on a table. Quality pelvic health care stars with an evaluation and development of treatment plan that is specific to you so that you can get the best results.

Pelvic Floor Therapy should be a full-body approach and this is exactly how we do things at Louisiana Pelvic Health.

You are not alone

Women frequently hear from providers or on social media that these symptoms are seen more commonly during pregnancy or after baby and to "just do your kegels".

​

However, women may experience these pelvic floor symptoms at varying times of life regardless of pregnancy status and a much more holistic approach is needed than just kegels. 

​

In fact, kegels can make some of these conditions worse where the pelvic floor is working too hard to compensate for other areas of the pelvis and other types of exercises and pelvic therapy treatments are needed. Dr. Melissa will discover the root cause to your symptoms to design a more custom full body and holistic treatment for lasting relief.

What my patients are saying:

"Dr. Melissa gave me my life back! I struggled with bladder problems for a long time trying medications and nothing worked until I found pelvic floor physical therapy with Dr. Melissa. She listened and took all of my concerns seriously and worked to find exercises that would address my issues and also things I could continue on my own once discharged."
